Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
Don't put me down
Stop pretend you're in love with the summer
Oh, I've seen how you dance in the rain
And I know what you've done to the others
Just to be lady crown sovereign
In the rain
Shake it all off in the rain
Maybe you should look back
At the summer
Again, oh-uh
Sometimes I feel like I'm crossing the line
But you know I get hurt all the time
Shouldn't feel like committing a crime
Gotta speak through my mind
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
Don't put me down
I say it's gonna hurt
Don't put me down
Don't put me down
Oh, I put my own heart first
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
I was never afraid to be honest
Easy living my life every day
I got hit by your lies like a rocket
Gotta leave it behind, ease the pain
Let it drain
Wash it all off, let it drain
'Cause you couldn't keep up
What you've promised
Again, oh-uh
Sometimes I feel like I'm crossing the line
But you know I get hurt all the time
Shouldn't feel like committing a crime
Gotta speak through my mind
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
Don't put me down
I say it's gonna hurt
Don't put me down
Don't put me down
Oh, I put my own heart first
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfire
I feel like I'm crossing the line
But you know I got hurt all the time
Shouldn't feel like commiting a crime
Got to speak through my mind
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
Don't put me down
I say it's gonna hurt
Don't put me down
Don't put me down
Oh, I put my own heart first
Don't put me down
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfıre
It's gonna backfire
It's gonna backfıre
